I am going to give you guys 3-4 more weeks, if things don't improve I am out for good (alcurex and a lot of Microcoin) , this has been going on for months. MCR has been silent in here and the Microcoin thread for months.

71 BTC is a lot of money for MCR to just go silent. There should have been a weekly project status update by MCR, it would have only taken him 5-10 min out of his day so yes I am calling him lazy.

If it were not for you Halibit (thanks for doing your best to keep things going), this place would have been dead a long time ago.

But these coins are not profitable. That's the main issue why I went back to mining regular scrypt.

It is very profitable. Especially where electricity is expensive such as Australia where it's 0.26 per kilowatt hour.

1104  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / First hand experience with Darkcoin mining and x11 algo on: March 27, 2014, 12:19:57 PM
Hi All,

As Australia has just come out of summer, and the Europeans and Americans will start to heat up soon I wanted to give you guys a look at the stats of mining Darkcoin which uses the x11 algorithm!

I can say that compared to the previous summer, having x11 was a dream, no more loud fans, no more overheating rigs, no more crashing and having to monitor my rigs so much.

I have 4x Gigabyte 280x video cards in each rig and are currently slightly undervolted. I have compared it against the standard scrypt algorithm and had the same machine mining until it hit a stable max temperature. The tests were done about 15 min apart from each other.

==========================Darkcoin (x11)==========================



==========================SCRYPT==========================



As you can see the results from mining x11:
Temps are around 20 degrees cooler
The kilowatt measurement shows a 50% reduction in electricity usage

Having one of the most innovative dev team's (first anonymity coin) and great communities I must applaud the Darkcoin team for developing such a great algorithm which will surely become more widely adopted in future.

For more info on how to start mining this coin please see the ANN thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=421615.0

I think the Dark community should implement new rules for trolls....starting NOW!

If they ask a serious question, then we answer it, if they start the FUD and trolling its immediate ignore, no quote or reply.

I don't want to have to skip through pages of people quoting their stupidly long rants of worthless dribble. Then we continue to fuel their obvious attempts at getting people worked up.

Don't waste your time, a simple ignore will do. Lets just keep this place full of useful information to better the coin/community.

1106  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Summer is coming........ on: March 27, 2014, 08:14:09 AM
Some countries don't have to worry about summer. Canada and Iceland world leaders in coin mining ? Cheesy

its not just about summer,


  • [50% less electricity;
  • better for the environment;
  • GPUs last longer due to less heat
  • more secure hashing algorithm;
  • more stable than scrypt;

1107  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Summer is coming........ on: March 27, 2014, 06:06:31 AM
Australia has just come out of summer and I can tell you mining Darkcoin and x11 was the best thing ever....

45-50% less electricity usage and at least 20-25 degrees cooler per GPU and totally rock stable.

mining scrypt was a bitch...overheating cards, noisy as fuck industrial fans just to blow more heat around....NO additional fans required for x11!

im NEVER going back to scrypt.

Darkcoin forever!

so how often does cryptsy pick coins to add to their market?

Every friday

We 'should' be on this Friday - pending no other coins donate a big amount.
1109  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: With ASICs on the horizon should DigiByte switch algorithms? on: March 23, 2014, 06:35:01 AM
If you want the best - go X11 - DarkCoin

Power usage is down almost 50%, less heat, very stable algo and asic resistant.

So you are taking the best of BitCoin, Dark and NXT.

Do you plan on writing over 10,000 lines of code just for the anonymity piece like the Dark team has done or wait until they finish all the hard innovative work so you can rip it off? Same goes for NXT....a lot of dev has gone into that as well.

IPO - People are tired of this shit - you want us to throw you money based on what you think the coin is worth.....then it hits the market and crashes.

YOU WILL GET NOTHING FROM ME

Won't be doing business here ....clearly NXT and DarkCoin were the favourites in the past votes - you went and added shit coins instead...
1115  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: !<~~~~~[ANN] BatCoin! KGW Implemented - MANDATORY UPDATE [ANN]~~~~~>! on: March 20, 2014, 11:58:39 PM
We need 0.26 BTC to bring us to just over 10,000 votes which should put us firmly in 4th place.

I just put in my little bits of BTC that I have - come on guys lets do this - its now or never!

Not that I condone the use of this coin for anything illegal. It is a form of cash so people can choose to do whatever they want with it.

With that said - take a look at this article: http://www.pfhub.com/2-trillion-flows-through-the-u-s-black-market-annually-and-the-governments-focus-is-bitcoin-421/

Imagine if some of that value flowed back into DarkCoin!

Doesn't have to be political. I just used it as an example. Whatever we can come up with that will gain us some good exposure with media etc.

Totally disagree with that !

Who else is in ?


You should replace it by "P2Pool Network bigger than 2GH" and send it to Chaeplin, creator of the P2Pool-DRK Fork !!!

Big Pool is a huge mistake, P2Pool is decentralised, can't be hacked, and belongs no one !

Its sad to see this bounty is still available. I also mentioned that 2 weeks ago:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=421615.msg5647332#msg5647332


Needs to be removed imo and funds distributed into other tasks.

We also should consider another fund for "Big" marketing items that will gain a large amount of media exposure in the future. i.e Snowden or Assange or some kind of stunt

Is there no new beta version with darksend available? Latest version from beta download page is still v0.8.9.6.
Bump

Next beta that Evan releases is a bigger update I think which requires more time to code/test etc.

Vault of satoshi asked about which coin to add. I think we should reply with constructive posts. Not just "add DRK " or "Darkcoin <3" etc

Can we all please support this?
